Gentlemen:
I have examined the record of all proceedings, including
particularly that certain Resolution adopted by the Board of
Directors of the City of Little Rock (herein called the "Public
Body") on the 3rd day of March, 1969, relative to the authorization,
approval and execution of the proposed First Amendatory Contract
Amending Contract for Grant to Acquire Land for Open-Space Purposes
(herein called the "Contract") referred to therein and numbered
Contract No. Ark. OSA-10, by and between the Public Body and the
United States of America (herein called the "Government") . I
have also examined the two counterparts of the Contract as executed
on behalf of the Public Body.
1 . It is my opinion that:
a. Said proceedings have been taken, said Resolution
has been adopted, and the Contract has been
executed on behalf of the Public Body by its
proper officials, in form, manner and otherwise
as authorized by law.
b. When each of said counterparts of the Contract
shall have been duly executed by the Government,
said Contract will constitute a valid, binding and
legal agreement between the aforesaid parties
thereto in accordance with its terms .
2. I HEREBY CERTIFY THAT:
a. None of said proceedings and no authority for the
authorization, execution and delivery of the Contract
_2
have or has been repealed, rescinded or revoked,
and said Resolution is in full force and effect.
b. No litigation of any nature is now pending or
threatened (in either State or Federal courts )
restraining or enjoining the Public Body' s
execution of the Contract or in any manner
questioning or affecting the validity thereof or
of the proceedings aforesaid, and neither the
corporate existence nor the legally prescribed area
of operation of the Public Body nor the title of its
present officers to their respective offices is
being contested.
c. To the date hereof, no legislation has been enacted
during the present session of the Legislature of
the State of Arkansas , if now in session, or during
the last session of such Legislature, if adjourned
sine die less than 6 months ago, which affects the
organization of the Public Body or its power or
authority to finance, undertake or carry out the
Project contemplated by the Contract in accordance
with the laws pertaining thereto in effect prior to
the convening of such session of the Legislature.
This 3rd day of March, 1969.
